Beachhead is a 2 day event. We are going to do AK47.
We will run Wild Geese (Film) game.
But on the Sunday might change this to the Siege of Jadotville!
Looks like it would be a straight forward AK game ? With a small town to one side (Denfenders long edge) with most of the Jungle templates around the edges, dips and long grass in the middle, loads of (hoardes) Africans also a couple of Technicals either side, and some support weapons etc.
If Anyone has any information they want to share please do ? As I am only just learning about it ?
One of the players who would play on the Sunday would like to recreate it. So if its feasible I will try ?

There is a good film about "jadotville" with that as the title.
It is a good idea Miles.
martin :)
I watched the film Sunday Afternoon.
Just got to get the book ?
It's a very basic "normal AK47 game"
Defenders around a small town set up with defences? These could be the "partials" the trenches ?
The Attackers coming across open ground with long grass, and dips and shallows hills and gullies ?
The main Katangese forces I ve already done with the Africans for Wild Geese.Just need to do some Militia in a similar camo jacket pattern to the Denistoun Smock ?
A lot of the templates I ve already done as well with the "Red Soil" base ?
If Colin does the buildings with his Laser cutter ?
We would be on our way in a big way?
Just got to do some Irish/British which I have already ? But I won't do the UN berets ? Also about 4/6 Land Rover Techicals ?
Miles
Good luck with the project Miles.
Hope you enjoy the game.
Are you going to do a story board for passers by to reda?
martin :)
Very possibly. Still in planning stage.
As you were in 2 minds as to what exactly your doing on that weekend?
Martin You are more than welcomed to come and join us on either or both days ?
Anyone who wants to join myself and Simon on the Saturday?
And/or Hopefully myself and and Colin on the Sunday ?
So on the Saturday will be Wild Geese (Film version) as per Colours with an actual purpose built Speacial piece and a Minehead replacing one of the jungle pieces.
If we can get the pieces together for the Sunday, Battle of Jadotsville.
Hopefully that way we can showcase the new AK47 rules, but also keep it interesting for everyone?
Miles
Thanks for the invitation Miles.
I may well go on the Sunday and do a sci fi game?
martin :)
No problem, it is an open invitation.
I may ask to borrow any PP promotions for AK for that weekend ?
Miles
Thanks Miles.
I wil bring the AK big banner if that is OK with you.
martin :)
That would be great, thank you.
